Zibby is joined by Carley Fortune, the New York Times bestselling author of Meet Me at the Lake, a stunning summer read about love and loss. Zibby reads a passage that brims with a distinctive sense of voice. Carley then discusses her difficult writing and revision process during her emotional postpartum months, as well as her struggles with self-doubt. She contrasts the immediacy of journalism, her previous career, with the slow pace of book publishing. The episode concludes with a discussion of Carley’s life outside of writing and some remarks on fashion and mood.Purchase on Zibby's Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3OD9gKmPurchase on Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3MR4FTrSubscribe to Zibby's weekly newsletter here.Purchase Moms Don't Have Time to Read Books merch here.
